SIRENEN | Jan Cremer

In the dark winter days of 1959, an unknown West-Frisian nurse and a painting rebel meet
in Amsterdam's nightlife. It is love at first sight and for both a lot of destiny. Five years later they are famous. She like Loesje Hamel, Topmannquin at Pierre Cardin and later the star of the Shaffy Chantant. He as the writer of an inexorable bestseller.

What starts when a forbidden love becomes a hectic and restless Odyssey that drives them apart for about ten years to both sides of the ocean. Yet they always look for each other, but it is only after half a century that Jan Loesjes dares to read letters and dares to confront himself. It inspired him to Sirenen, the story of their dramatic love.
